The new members rise to recite the Mu Alpha Theta pledge. Right hands are held up and the members repeat in unison. Certificates are awarded and members pledge to contribute to their new club.

“The purpose of Mu Alpha Theta is to help the community,” club historian, Caroline May said. “Students with higher math grades are in the club and this helps to get a good group of students together. It ultimately creates a good leadership community.”

The Mu Alpha Theta Club recently inducted its new members into the prestigious, national honor society. Members must be in a math class for all years in high school and maintain a 3.00 GPA and do 10 hours of community service per year in order to maintain membership.

“Mu Alpha Theta is a club that participates in community service that emphasizes on use of mathematics, this is what separates us from other clubs,” club secretary Alex Heo said. “[The club] is a great club to get into if you’re interested in becoming an active person at the school.”
